Frequent Derepression of the Mesenchymal Transcription Factor Gene FOXC1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

View SamplesBone marrow samples from normal adult male donors were collected into EDTA. Red cells were removed by ammonium chloride lysis. Leukocytes were washed in SM buffer and CD34+ cells were separated from CD34- cells using an AutoMACS device and anti-CD34 immunomagnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec), according to manufacturers instructions. For mature cell populations, CD34- cells were FACS purified according to the following immunophenotypes, with 7-AAD used to exclude dead cells: Neutrophils: side scatter high CD15+ CD16+. Monocytes: side scatter low-intermediate CD14+ CD16- CD15-. See also Huang et al., 2014.

View SamplesSignalling via the colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) controls the survival, differentiation and proliferation of macrophages which are a source of the somatic growth factor insulin growth factor 1 (IGF1). Treatment of newborn mice with CSF1 has previously been shown to produce an increase in somatic growth rate and we hypothesised that treatment of neonatal low birth weight (LBW) rats with CSF1 would do the same. Growth rates were not affected, yet CSF1 treatment caused an unexpectedly large, but reversible increase in liver size and hepatic fat deposition in both normal and LBW rats. By transcriptional profiling, we have highlighted numerous CSF1-regulated genes known to be involved in lipid droplet formation in the liver and novel candidate genes for further investigation. In contrast to mice and weaner pigs, CSF1 treatment did not increase hepatocyte proliferation in neonatal rats, rather the data were consistent with increased macrophage proliferation instead. This suggests that Kupffer cells promote lipid accumulation in neonates and treatment to ablate CSF1R signalling may reverse lipid accumulation in the liver.

View SamplesWe have identified a CD57+PD1- CD4 T cell phenotype at the time of transplantation that strongly correlates with subsequesnt development of belatacept-resistant rejection. In this study, we used microarray to determine which genes were upregulated in CD57+ compared to CD57- CD4 T cells.

View SamplesMacrophages in tumor microenvironment have been characterized as M1- and M2-polarized subtypes. This study sought to investigate the effects of different macrophage subtypes on the biological behavior and global gene expression profiles of lung cancer cells. Expression microarray and bioinformatics analyses indicated that the different macrophage subtypes mainly regulated genes involved in cell cycle, cytoskeletal remodeling, coagulation, cell adhesion and apoptosis pathways in A549 cells, a pattern that correlated with the altered behavior of A549 cells observed after coculture with macrophage subtypes.

View SamplesIn order to identify patterns of gene expression associated with biological effects in THP-1 cells induced by F3, we performed a transcriptomic analysis on the THP-1 control and F3-treated THP-1 cells by oligonucleotide microarray

View SamplesAE-expressing murine BM cells treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) in semi-solid methycellulose-based cultures show an increase in self-renewal capacity whilst treatment with a specific RARa agonist NRX195183 reduces their clonogenicity. Gene expression analysis was performed to further investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying these observations. Upregulated gene sets were identified in the ATRA-treated AE BM cells.
ATRA and the specific RARα agonist, NRX195183, have opposing effects on the clonogenicity of pre-leukemic murine AML1-ETO bone marrow cells.
